Aftercare for VI Peels
- Use the VI Peel Post Kit exactly as directed.
- Moisturize often; do not peel or pick flakes.
- SPF 30+ every day; reapply if outdoors.
- Avoid heat, sweating, and steam 48–72 hours.
- Skip exfoliants/retinoids/actives for 7 days (or until peeling stops).
- Hold off on facial hair removal, dermaplaning, or other peels for 1–2 weeks.
- Resume prescription topicals only when skin is fully calm (we’ll guide you).
What to expect (day-by-day)
- Day 0 (in-studio): Mild warmth/tingle; you’ll leave with a light film and a take-home kit.
- Day 1: Skin feels tight/dry; follow the post-peel towelettes per the kit.
- Day 2–3: Peeling begins around mouth/chin, then cheeks/forehead. Don’t pick.
- Day 4–5: Peak peeling; keep skin hydrated and protected.
- Day 6–7: Flakes taper off; skin looks brighter and smoother.
- Weeks 2–6: Tone/texture/pigment continue to improve with daily SPF and brighteners.
How to prepare for a VI Peel
- Pause retinoids (tretinoin, adapalene), acids, and benzoyl peroxide 5–7 days before.
- Avoid waxing, sugaring, threading, or dermaplaning on the area for 7 days prior.
- No self-tanner or significant sun exposure for 1 week pre-peel.
- If prone to cold sores, ask your provider about antiviral prophylaxis.
- Arrive with clean skin (no makeup, SPF, or heavy skincare).
- Let us know about recent laser hair removal on the area (space 1–2 weeks away from the peel).
Which VI Peel is right for me?
- Original: Early signs of aging, dullness, texture, sensitive skin.
- Advanced: Fine lines and loss of firmness needing a bit more punch.
- Precision Plus: Stubborn pigment, sun spots, melasma-prone skin.
- Purify: Active acne, congestion, enlarged pores.
- Purify + Precision Plus: Acne with post-inflammatory marks and uneven tone.
Who isn’t a candidate?
Pregnant or breastfeeding, active cold sores or open lesions, certain acne treatments within 6 months, recent sunburn, or a known phenol/TCA sensitivity. We’ll review your medical history at consult.
Can I have a peel before a big event?
Schedule at least 2 weeks before (first-timers). If you’ve peeled with us before and know your timing, 7–10 days may be enough.
Can I combine VI Peel with other treatments?
Great with HydraFacial MD (pre-or post-series), microneedling (separate by ~2 weeks), LED, and clinical skincare. Avoid waxing, laser hair removal, or other peels on the same area for 1–2 weeks around your peel.
